Saw Australian version first so had bonded with that but the US version is pretty damn good... loved the two tunnel guys ❤❤❤and all the conversations between JP, his step dad ( the WF character so funny) and Marco, JP does a great low key job of being offended bemused then outraged by the madness he s hearing 😊😊😊... PB does a fine job of seeming American without overdoing it at all, making it look so easy, Janice is good but i missed Carol's comic timing and David Field who i lurve, and how do you replace Stokes?(though Tolbeck was pretty great) and Elizabeth and Bernie!! 😆...my fave character in this version was Roberto he s just adorable. Haven't seen season 2 yet!! But will watch it for sure.

Hilarious show if you like people just riffing. Tim meadows is gold. But season 4. Freaking claymation. Really?

I loved the Aussie version, and after watching the first episode of this US version, love it even more. It's hilarious.

It's a comedy about nothing happening.

But perhaps even funnier is reading the reviews of people complaining that nothing happens...

At first I thought they were intentional ie knowingly playing along with the show - but now I'm starting to think they've actually totally missed the point...

You took a great premise, with funny and improv'd dialogue plus great cast... and ruined it by making it animation! Please return it to its former self.

Some producer's should stick to their day-jobs....as actors.

Firstly, a little disclaimer: I haven't seen the Australian original, so I can't compare or comment, but clearly an American remake was the creators' intention given the involvement of Patrick and Trent.

As for the negative comments all around me, look - it is the POINT of the show. The vast majority of the scenes are purely dialogue and character-driven, and every couple of episodes something will actually happen, or two of the characters will meet - but you shouldn't be waiting or expecting during the other scenes for something to happen, it's just a little reward that works all the better BECAUSE of those scenes. It all worked well for me as the last thing I watched before I slept, as you can just listen for the most part, or have it on in the background while doing something else. Keep this in mind, if you want constant action or plot development then watch something else.

I was endeared to the show mainly because of the cast; the character pairings all work and have their moments, with the characters developing or expanding on previous conversations throughout. Season 2 takes great measures to revitalize the situations, especially with Jason Mantzoukas' character, who might have failed without the presence of Jesse Plemons, but actually prospers in an entertaining season-long storyline with Cristin Milioti.
